Review navan 9th Oct

The afternoon at Navan belonged to Joseph O'Brien, who not only bagged a hat-trick, but also broke the record for the most winners ridden in a seasonWed 09th Oct

Joseph equals the record

In 1993 Michael Kinane set a record of 115 winners ridden in an Irish flat racing season. The same year Joseph O'Brien was born and today the young Ballydoyle pilot equalled his fellow Tipperary man's feat when Sardinia landed the October Maiden at Navan. Wed 09th Oct

Friday's Punchestown Preview

3:40pm There's the the usual eccentricity to this event with the 2009 and 2010 winners renewing rivalries. Shin A Vee won in 2009 but was narrowly beaten by COOL WARRIOR the following year and, while Derek O'Connor is a notable booking, Shin A Vee has been absent for 772 days and is now passed over. Preference is for 12 year old COOL WARRIOR, who at least has proven fitness on his side. The other 14 runners have mustered just 10 point to points wins between them and finding a form alternative to either of the two previous winners is difficult. Ten year old Norwich Flyer has three point to point wins to his name though and may play a prominent roll while Enniskillen, who worringly is still a maiden point to pointer, ran ok in the Ladies Cup on Tuesday and has minor claims. The Begrudger is a dual point to point winner a long time ago but hasn't shown anything worth mentioning recently. (TW) Fri 26th Apr

After race at Tipperary Tue, 6th Oct, 2015 (1st)

He's now won his bumper, on the Flat, over hurdles and fences but won't race on very heavy ground during the winter,

winning trainer Dermot representing D K Weld

After race at Fairyhouse Tue, 23rd Oct, 2012 (1st)

That was very satisfactory,. He still has a lot to learn. He was a bit novicey early but his jumping improved as the race progressed. We'll look for a novice but could wait until Christmas as we're not in any hurry with him. I hope the spring is his target. He's won in testing ground there but that's really not what he wants. He's a talented horse with a lot of class.

D K Weld

After race at Limerick Sun, 3rd Apr, 2011 (1st)

He won very easily although Robbie said he hated the ground,. It was quite sticky but his class rose to the top. He'll go to Punchestown for the champion bumper next and that would probably finish him then for the summer.

D K Weld

After race at Leopardstown Sun, 27th Feb, 2011 (1st)

That was a very good performance giving 14Ibs to the runner-up who looks like a very nice horse. The plan was to hold him up and ride him for pace but Robbie wisely did the right thing by going on. They pulled a long way clear of the third too (nine lengths back to Streets Of Newyork). He may go for the McManus bumper at Limerick next and then he might go to Punchestown. He is a big weak horse but he's all class. He is a super leaper, he jumps like a stag and he could have a huge future over jumps.

D K Weld

After race at Leopardstown Sun, 9th Jan, 2011 (1st)

Waaheb is still a bit weak and immature and he's not a Cheltenham bumper horse. He'll run next in Limerick's Champion Four Year Old Bumper, a race we've won a few times, but jumping is his forte. He has been well schooled and will make a nice horse next Autumn.
